Union to campaign against single-phrase Ofsted judgments, threatening possible strike action
Headteachers in England are to launch a campaign for the abolition of “inhumane and unreliable” single-phrase school inspection judgments, threatening legal challenges and possible strike action if the government refuses reforms.
Delegates to the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) annual conference committed the union “to explore all campaign, legal and industrial routes to secure necessary changes to inspection to safeguard leaders’ lives,” after the suicide last year of the headteacher Ruth Perry.
